If slapping elephants into gingham will flatten the cost of clam

have the elephants on our side, but gosh, look at the upkeep. It would
be cheaper to keep a stuffed canary and starve surrounded by your wife's

Cause Untold Tor
ture As Warm
Weather Approaches.
Many cases of eczema, tet
ter, pimples, scaly eruptions
and other evidences of a dis
ordered skin very often lie
dormant during the winter
season, but become active- as
warm weather approaches,
and soon break out into almost
intolerable torture.
As soon as you realize
that so-called skin dis
eases originate in the
blood, and, treat them ac
cordingly, you will be on
the right track to free
yourself of this annoying
trouble.
Just imagine that there is a
steady blaze of fire in constant
contact with your tender skin,
and you can form some idea of
the pain that must be endured
by the afflicted. For the mil
lions and millions of tiny dis
ease germs that seem to bur
row through the skin, each one
carrying a torch of fire, cause
pain that is almost unendur
able. And the constant plea of
those afflicted is the oft-repeated
question, "How can I
find relief from this constant
torture ? " Not palliative, tem
porary relief that causes the
terrible itching ,to abate for
awhile, but real, genuine relief
that shakes off the shackles of
the disease and restores the
skin to its former healthy con
dition?" And temporary relief is the
most that can be expected
from local treatment, such as
ointments, salves, lotions, etc.,
which is one reason why these
diseases seem to hold on with
such tenacity. It is not be
cause they are incurable, but
because they are improperly
treated, that they apoear to be
so stubborn and so difficult to
cure.
The" fact is they are mis
named, and therefore improp
erly treated. Because the
trouble attacks the skin and
all the pain and discomfort is
confined to the surface of the
skin, these disorders are called
"skin diseases." But the real
cause is a disease germ in the
blood, which multiplies by the
million, and sets up an irrita
tion in some tender location of
the delicate skin.
You can get some little re
lief for the time being by rub
bing or scratching the irri
tated skin, but you would not
expect to be cured in this way.
Neither should you expect a
cure from local applications of
lotions, ointments or other
remedies applied to the skin,
for the simple reason that a
cure must, come from the
source of the trouble.
You must locate the head
quarters of the disease germs,
and cut off their base of sup
plies. The blood is saturated
with them, and they will set up
their attacks on the surface of
the skin as long as they remain
in the bloc I, no matter how
much local treatment you
take.
A million gallons of lo
cal treatment applied to
the surface of the skin
will not eliminate the
perms of the disease from
the blood, and until they
are eliminated your skin
will never be free from
the itching and burning
discomfort.
If you want genuine relief,
then take a treatment that
goes right to the seat of the
trouble and removes its cause.
Such a remedy is S. S. S., the
reliable old blood purifier that
cleanses the blood and routs
out germs of disease.
S, S. S. has been ''red suc
cessfully in some of the or L
cases of eczemaand other sk.
troubles, and it can be relied
upon to cleanse the blood.
S. S. S. is also a splendid tonic
and system builder, and it
builds up and adds new vigor
to the whole system.
Go to your drug store and
get a bottle of S. S. S. today
and begin theright treatment
for skin diseases. Then write
for free medical advice about
your own case. Address Chief
